To amend the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 to modify the requirement to impose sanctions with respect to the provision of specialized financial messaging services to the Central Bank of Iran and other sanctioned...

This bill would amend the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 (*H.R. 1905 of 5/13/11) by requiring rather than merely allowing the president to impose sanctions on financial institutions that provide certain services to the Central Bank of Iran and other institutions, in accordance with the law. Also, the sanctions would be expanded to include visa denial and exclusion from entry to the U.S. for persons the president determined were ‘senior executive[s] or member[s] of the board of directors’ of financial institutions providing such services.

Last major action: 11/3/15 referred to House Subcomm. on Immigration and Border Security.
